Program Description
The Library Partnership Resource Center operated by Partnership for Strong Families and the Parent-based Prevention Lab in the Department of Family, Youth, and Community Sciences at the University of Florida are coming together to develop a Youth Advisory Board (YAB). Our goals are a) to inform the development of a media parenting prevention program; b) to identify community strategies for mitigating the effects of online harassment and online racial discrimination based on recent interviews with teens about these topics; c) to engage in youth development activities that meet youth goals. The YAB will be guided by participatory values including a focus on strengths-based approach to the community, full-participation, joint responsibility in decision making, and inclusive solutions.
